What are real estate agents gonna do- payments of a thousand dollars in monthly installments? And car nuts trying to sell their vintage corvair or mustang? I think their cap is a little rediculous and will cause a total revolt especially for those who are trying to sell high dollar items.

And to make it relevant, does anyone know if Gimondi made some lugged ladies bikes? What level were they trying to sell these at? Is it anywhere near the upper end of their line? I see maybe a simplex or huret front der (the plastic one that doesn't work) and cottered cranks, and probably steel rims. It sure looks purty with the lugs, but is this something collectable or pass overable depending on price? Anything else I should look at?
